automatic configuration. The taskbar configuration will get adjusted
dynamically in response to moving the Windows taskbar or adding/removing
monitors

Support for the window buttons under Aero is planned for beta 2, a new

Changes
existing language packs won't work with UltraMon 3
For system administrators:
settings are stored in new locations, and folders can no longer be
changed: files are stored in the roaming application data folder under
Realtime SoftUltraMon
, settings are stored in the registry under
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareRealtime SoftUltraMon
. The wallpaper manager only generates a single wallpaper bitmap, and
stores it in the local application data folder under Realtime
SoftUltraMon
to set up default settings for new users, first export the registry
key to a .reg file named User.reg, then edit the .reg file and replace
the version in the key names with 'Default'. Copy the versioned
application data folder to the default user folder and rename it to
'Default', then copy the file User.reg into the root of the 'Default'
folder
Fixed issues
Ignored monitors setting can't be changed under Windows Vista
Application may get slowed down if the UltraMon window buttons are enabled
under Windows Vista with the Aero theme
When loading a new wallpaper, the Outlook Express toolbar increases in
size
On some systems, the UltraMon screen saver may not work correctly or cause
problems if password protection isn't enabled for the screen saver
On Windows Vista, the monitor icons used in display settings, the Choose
Monitor dialog and elsewhere don't show the monitor number
Tooltip for taskbar buttons doesn't display the & character
Known issues
The Smart Taskbar may not pick up all taskbar configuration changes, for
example if you move the Windows taskbar to a different screen edge, the
UltraMon taskbars won't get moved to the same edge automatically. As a
workaround, restart the Smart Taskbar
WindowBlinds skins which use transparency aren't fully supported, you'll
get a black background where the taskbar should be transparent
Taskbar buttons are cut off at the bottom on Windows 2000
